Agreed, both women have a lot of strength.
To me, Meera has shown how strong she is when she found out Nandini was Ani's wife, and still felt Nandini's pain. If anyone has ever been betrayed, they'd know that it takes immense inner strength to accept the fact and also be friendly, sympathize and genuinely care for the "other girl" whom your "true love" was cheating you with. To me her care towards Nandini shows what a strong girl she is, because it does take a lot of strength to put your own pain aside and realize that someone else is going through the same pain and needs support.
Nandini is no doubt strong as well. To be honest, I don't know how anyone in her place could survive. She has literally lost everything. Meera did come to give the family a reason to live, but the reality is that without intending to she took away every single reason Nandini had to live. I'm not taking about Ani's memories. I think Nandini deserves to know her husband was a cheat. I'm talking about the family. After Ani's death and her child's death and an invisible father, Nandini only had Ani's family which she treated like her own family. She had those sweet moments with her sister-in-laws and her Biji, and she was living off those. But now even that family that she thought was her own has been taken away from her only because Meera can give them a child. On top of that, she is fully dependent on this family. Even if she wishes to leave, where will she go? The amount of strength Nandini must have to be living through this situation is unimaginable.
